My usb harddrive will not open the plugged media notifier on Precise 12.04 with TDE 3.5.13.2.
If I log out and back in to the xfce4 desktop the usb harddrive is detected and mounts ok.
I also have Lucid 10.04 with TDE and Hardy 8.04 with KDE3 on the same machine and the plugged media notifier works ok on them.
On a new machine I have recently installed Precise 12.04 with TDE 3.5.13.2 which installed with no problems whatsoever (Asrock M3A785GM-LE/128M) and the plugged media notifier works as expected.
On the Precise 12.04 with the problem, I ran tail -f /var/log/syslog and the usb harddrive is detected ok and shows the two partitions on it as below.

I get the same as the above with the new install of Precise 12.04 but then the plugged media notifier opens and when I click on ok I get a few more lines of output and the harddrive is mounted and opens the partitions in konqueror.
Apart from reinstalling TDE default settings and the desktop has anyone any suggestions as to how to troubleshoot the problem that TDE seems to have in opening the plugged media notifier on this install?
Thanks in advance, Nigel.

Have you tried TDE R14.0.0 to see if the problem persists on the latest version? Cheers Michele

No I havn't, but as there is no problem with 3.5.13.2 (the new install on the other machine) it appears to be something wrong with the install on the machine with a problem.
I have to admit that I have had a terrible problem installing anything on this machine with an Asus M2N-X Plus mobo, having had to use extraordinary incantations of kernel options to get the install cd's to boot.
Post install of xubuntu 12.04 and before I installed TDE I had problems booting because in with the harddrives I had One pata one, and the machine insisted on loading pata first which screwed up the drive order (sata should be loaded first). I fixed that in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, but had also removed some packages which I thought may have been responsible for the boot up problems, mainly pmount, gvfs-backends, and cryptsetup.
Having got it to boot ok I then installed TDE 3.5.13.2 which has been working fine. Then I gor the usb harddrive and found the plugged media notifier problem. I actually found it again as inserted dvds didn't bring it up either, but I hadn't bothered about that as I could simply open the video dvd in kaffeine.
To try and resolve the problem I reinstalled pmount and gvfs-backends but not cryptsetup as that messed with the harddive loading order again. I also compared synaptics package list on the new install with the packages installedon the machine with the problem, which resulted in me installing a bunch of packages which appeared to be missing on the machine with the problem, but none of this has resolved the problem.
I am wondering if some necessary links that TDE creates when installing are missing due to pmount, etc not being there when TDE was installed, and me having reinstalled pmount and the other things after TDE was installed is effectively a waste of time as the the links (if there are supposed to be any) are not there.
Well that's how it stands at the moment. I somehow think that I'm going to end up having to reinstall TDE default settings and the desktop to see if that will resolve the problem.
All the best, Nigel.

Well there is no problem with the other two distros I mentioned on the same machine Lucid 10.04 with TDE and Hardy 8.04 with Kde3. Both bring up the plugged media notifier when the usb harddrive is plugged in or when I insert a video dvd.
One thing I do see though when I plug in the usb harddrive on Precise 12.04 and have the kcontrol usb module open on the desktop, is that sometimes he harddive is shown initially under ohci_hcd, but when I replug it it shows correctly under ehci_hcd.

If I remember correctly, on Ubuntu Precise was sometime problem with the proper functioning of HAL. And because notifications of the media in TDE 3.5.13.x depends on HAL, you must first verify the functionality of HAL.
...or you can upgrade to the TDE R14 series, which no longer needs to HAL.
